Answer:

Temperature, T = 10000 K

Explanation:

It is given that,

Wavelength, [tex]\lambda=290\ nm=290\times 10^{-9}\ m[/tex]

We need to find the temperature of a star whose maximum light is emitted at this wavelength. It can be calculated using Wein's displacement law as :

[tex]\lambda_{max}.T=2.9\times 10^{-3}[/tex]

[tex]T=\dfrac{2.9\times 10^{-3}}{290\times 10^{-9}}[/tex]

T = 10000 K

So, the temperature of a star is 10000 K. Hence, this is the required solution.
